Hometown lady, leavin' for the city Bags in hand, she's boardin' the train Her last look through the window, I saw her eyes were as red as mine I waved goodbye but I can't believe she's leaving. But a woman can't be high-class In a lonely farmer's town And the son of a poor man Ain't gonna turn your head around But if you ever get lonely Just pick up the telephone And the son of a poor man will bring you home. Maybe soon I'll see her on some television show Painted lips and fingers singing for the world A fashion plate for sure dancin' for your plastic world Call me up if you can but if not well I'll understand But a woman can't be high-class In a lonely farmer's town And the son of a poor man Ain't gonna turn your head around But if you ever get lonely Just pick up the telephone And the son of a poor man will bring you home. |

Lost, lost in a dream (It's a dream) And I think, it's some evil scheme They say, that I don't feel, what I feel But I know, that this ain't no game What am I supposed to lie? That ain't what I'm saying You're telling me that I could be A little insane I tell myself to pull myself Together again 'Cause I Ain't been the same |

Another day in the city Another dancer to the music But lately, all the music sounds so strange Well some songs have no meaning And some songs try to hard Tryin to say it all And end up saying nothin Well maybe the words ring true What's right for them Maybe wrong for you So come out of the jungle Of another man's dreams And if you come to a clearing As lonely as it seems It's never too late to breakaway To Breakaway Another day lost in livin And another same old beginning And knowing where and why we went wrong Someone says I've changed And someone says that I've remained In the same place For maybe just a little too long (chorus) (piano solo) (chorus) |

Cool as the water melting from the winter snows You are the island I've been looking for I don't know where you come from But I can feel you comin on You're a storm inside my soul That's ragin out of control Call the wind out Call out the thunder Oh lightning, only you can will the weather I said come on Won't ya come on? Lightning you're mine Tonight, tonight You caught me while I was sleepin Restin from a heavy run I saw you in your evening gown You were lighting up the sky No matter what tomorrow brings Lightning, your mine tonight Woah, lightning your mine tonight Crack the horizon Only you can split the night Then comes your mother cloud to take you away Another wind will dry me And the sun will make me warm But to me my life will always be The calm before the storm (chorus) (solo) (chorus) |

Well I've seen women who cross their legs Before they sit down to the table And I've seen women who look to the sky Screamin Lord I believe in the Bible And I've seen hookers dancin through Times Square With their heads held up so high But I've never seen a woman Who makes me feel Woah, like you do Well I've seen couples holdin hands With that glazy look in their eyes And I've seen lovers rollin round in bed Screamin as if they're gonna die And I've seen lovers holdin hands And then laughin when their back is turned But I've never seen a woman Who makes me feel Woah, like you do (solo) Well I've seen women who cross their legs Before they sit down to the table And I've seen women who look to the sky Screamin Lord I Believe in the Bible And I've seen hookers dancin through Times Square With their heads held up so high But I've never seen a woman Who makes me feel No I've never seen a woman Who can make me feel Like you do |

We flew into town on Sunday, had to find a place by Monday Tried Bridgeport and Westport, 'til we found a place that we thought would do 157 Riverside Avenue. Saugatuck River's flowin', Mother nature's colors were showin' So cold, so rainy, we couldn't help feelin' blue Not enough time, too many things to do. We met a young girl on Main street, wanted to just pass her by She was homely, so lonely, She said, "Can I make love to you." We shouted 157 Riverside Avenue. It's over, Miss Lena, we're leaving. Such a pleasant stay, I must say. So nice, so easy, we hate to say goodbye to you At 157 Riverside Avenue.

Ridin' the storm out, waitin' for the thaw out On a full moon night in the Rocky Mountain winter. My wine bottle's low, watching for the snow I've been thinking lately of what I'm missing in the city. And I'm not missing a thing Watchin' the full moon crossing the range Ridin' the storm out Ridin' the storm out. My lady's beside me, she's there to guide me. She says that alone we've finally found home. The wind outside is frightening, but it's kinder than the lightning life in the city. It's a hard life to live but it gives back what you give. |

I've been around for you I've been up and down for you But I just can't get any relief I've swallowed my pride for you I've lived and lied for you But you still make me feel like a thief You got me stealin' your love away 'Cause you never give it Peeling the years away And we can't relive it I make you laugh And you make me cry I believe it's time for me to fly You said we'd work it out You said that you had no doubt That deep down we were really in love Oh, but I'm tired of holding on To a feeling I know is gone I do believe that I've had enough I've had enough of the falseness Of a worn out relation Enough of the jealousy And the intoleration I make you laugh And you make me cry I believe it's time for me to fly {Refrain} Time for me to fly Oh, I've got to set myself free Time for me to fly And that's just how it's got to be I know it hurts to say goodbye But it's time for me to fly Oh, don't you know it's... {Refrain} It's time for me to fly {Repeat to end} |

You may not know this but you are everything you've ever needed. Heaven with a touch of New York. Silver with a touch of gold. And I can see where you're goin', but I don't really know the way. It's got too many changes, too much rearranging, Too many ways to go astray. So if you wanna go, let me go along I never walked that road alone I heard it was hard I heard it was long But we'll come back alive 'Cause only the strong survive You walk on a wire, make a game of desire, pitchin' pennies down a wishing well. You're leading the blind through there high and low times, but baby can you lead yourself? So calm down, honey, forget about the money. If you need me I'll always be there. Go ride your high horse alone of course 'Cause if you need me I'll always care |

Back On The Road Again Please don't hate me mama for what I'm about to do But the good times we've had together are just about now through Please don't misunderstand me, I hate to see you cry But I think that it might look better if I told you now goodbye I'm back on the road again, it's time I leave you now And maybe I'll see you next time, that I'm around Until then I hope your happy baby and good times come your way I'm back on the road again, I'm on my way Well I've loved you since the day I met you and I'll love you till the day I die But we both know the life I'm livin and we both know the reason why That I've got to leave ya mama and I've got to leave today But you know that I'll see you next time that I come through your town to play (chorus) ooh, bye-bye baby (solo) (chorus) |
